      The guy once stated that he doesn’t really feel his personality has changed since the first grade. This was probably one of his more honest statements.

      It’s not effort or work you are seeing. It’s a child’s guile wrapped in an adult’s body.

    Odd that the Paul brothers like hanging out with child fuckers, traffickers and molesters amongst other people with the Republican Party.

    Guess they just enjoy the like minded company …

        Camacho definitely understood there was a problem, sought after someone much smarter to help solve it. Can’t say any politician today would be humbled to do something like that.

        It’s been said many times, but to say it a different way: the government and Camacho in Idiocracy were much much better, since they immediately elevated the smartest person they could find to a cabinet-level post and accepted help rather than just lied about the problem.

    What a competent man trump is. He’ll rape your daughter and then endorse Paul in the same day. I think trump should enter the ring against Anthony Joshua just like Paul did and every non-abusing father should get a front row seat.

    Jake Paul will be 35 in 2032, which i guess means he could run for president that year. Mr. Beast won’t be able to run till 2036.

    Both of these are nightmare options

      You need to be a certain age to run for president in America? I understand minors but I’m talking about adults.

          Is there a reason for this? Is it experience?

          Because if so surely there should be an max age limit too? You shouldn’t be able to run if you are nearly 80 with dementia…

            The reason is simply that the Constitution says so since the beginning.

            I don’t really know the reason why 35 specifically. It’s been that way since the Constitution was written. Maybe they felt anyone under 35 couldn’t have had enough life experience to properly carry out the duties of office? As for why no max age limit, no clue there either

        There are many countries where that is the case for various political offices… the two houses of Congress in the US also have (somewhat lower) age requirements.
